Tips
Ruins of the former St. Johann parish church in the lost village of Oberlinden I11th-13th. century).
It was called "Oberkirche" and gave its name to the nearby noble family of Oberkirch. In 1570, under the influence of the Oberkirch family, it became the parish church of the Protestant community of Obernai. It has been in ruins since the French Revolution.
The Oberehnheim humanist, theologian and reform opponent Thomas Murner (1475-1537) was pastor of this church.translated by
